@sickburnbro Man I'm just tired of this shit being regurgitated over and over. How many times can you eat the same hot-dog? A lot, it turns out.
I don't assume it's based on logic, I'm just obsessed by the psychology behind it.
The AR-15 demonization and a complete lack thereof when Mini-14 is involved made it clear it's the look that decides a "weapon of war", but it goes so much deeper than that, and I can't shake it out of my mind.
I thought there HAS to be a concrete, non-reductible list of criteria of what elements make libtards decide whether an arm is "evil" or "my pops hunting rifle", but every time this discourse comes up, more shit gets added to the list.
We got so far:
Semi-vs full auto. Okay, that's understandable.
Magazine sizes. Okay, that's kinda dumb, but I guess the non-initiated make mistakes like that.
Barrel-loaders vs integrated cartridge. Oh, I see, the "founding fathers wouldn't want you to..." argument again.
Wooden vs All-black furniture. ???

There is no logic to it and I HATE it.
